Tours of ARLIS are offered by request during normal hours of operation to individuals or small groups. General tours provide an overview of the facility and a brief introduction to the Library’s collections, resources, and services. Tour content may be tailored to special interests if adequate time is available. Requests for tours must be made at least two weeks in advance so that a staff member can be assigned to provide the tour and be available to answer questions. Tours are scheduled through the Reference desk on a first-come, first-served basis as staff time permits. Time varies from 30 minutes to 1 hour.
